20Th/21St Century Theme And Variation Pieces

Featured Replies

Hi guys! 

 

I'm interested in studying Theme and Variation pieces from the past 100 years or so. I'm not sure where to start, so could you suggest some for me? Thanks!

There are two from Britten's solo cello suites (really cool and underappreciated pieces): this chaconne from his second suitehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vZ2cuWn9iU

and the passagalia from his third suite https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-2fnwlfThs
